HP FlexFabric 12900 series Command Reference Manual page 242

Usage guidelines
CAUTION:
Device reboot interrupts network services.
•
If the main startup software images are corrupted or missing, you must re-specify a set of main startup
•
software images before using the reboot command to reboot the device. Otherwise, the device cannot
start up.
Using the force keyword might cause file system corruption. HP recommends that you use this keyword
•
only when the system fails or cannot start up.
For data security, the device does not reboot if you reboot the device while the device is performing file
operations.
In standalone mode:
•
To reboot a card, specify the slot number.
To reboot the entire device, do not specify the slot number option.
In IRF mode:
•
You can use reboot [ chassis chassis-number [ slot slot-number ] ] on the master to reboot the master
or a subordinate member device.
To reboot a card, specify both the IRF member ID and the slot number.
To reboot an IRF member device, specify only the IRF member ID.
To reboot all IRF member devices, do not specify the member ID or slot number option.
